Volume 1 Forest Knight Chapter 73 Trial by Combat (1)
After struggling for a while, Balian gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I promise you, I will participate in the trial by combat."
Hearing that Balian agreed to her, Jesse was very happy. She burst into laughter, walked to Balian, and said excitedly: "Thank you, Sir Balian. I am really touched. I don't know how."
Thank you."
"Saving an innocent life is the duty of a knight. You are welcome." Balian smelled the elegant floral fragrance on her body, and felt a warm and sweet feeling in his heart.
Jesses raised his head and looked at Balian. After staring for a while, he said with a smile: "Not only are you capable, but you are also quite handsome. You just don't know how to clean yourself up and your clothes are in a mess. I will do it for you myself."
Just some clothes."
"Ah!" Balian was startled when he heard Janis's words.
Seeing Balian's frightened look, Jesse lowered his head and covered his mouth, laughed, and then said to Balian: "Sister Murat taught me embroidery and sewing, and my craftsmanship is pretty good, just wait.
"
"Thank you, beautiful lady, but don't you measure my height and shoulder width?" Balian asked, dumbfounded.
Jesses raised his head and gave Balian a bright smile, "No, your height and shape are similar to my father's. I have made several clothes for him. Don't worry, they will definitely fit."
Balian, who has been straight for two generations, has little experience in dealing with girls. Jesses said that he wanted to make him a dress. After hearing this, he was completely confused and at a loss, and he didn't know what to say.
Jesses looked at him standing there stupidly scratching his head, and said with a smile: "Okay, I won't disturb you anymore, I will have someone send you a message tomorrow at the latest."
With that said, she walked out. Just a few steps out of the door, she turned back and said, "May the great God of Fire bless you, my brave and kind-hearted Sir Balian." Then she trotted away.
After Jesse left, Balion stared blankly at the door. He didn't know how long he was stunned. Bran quietly appeared. He looked at Balian with a silly smile on his face, but he didn't dare to make any noise for fear of disturbing him.
He became the lord of his own family.
But Bran's appearance still disturbed Balian. He blushed, and then hurriedly cursed with a serious look: "Where did you go just now? When you see the distinguished guest coming, you don't even know how to come in to wait on you. How can you?"
Why are you so ignorant of the rules?"
Bran laughed playfully under the tree nearby and said: "Master, how dare I come and disturb the wonderful time you and that beautiful lady are alone together? If I really go away without knowing what to do, you won't be punished to death if I look back."
I."
"Now, I'm going to beat you to death!" As he said that, Balian pretended to hit someone and wanted to hit him, but Bran ran very fast and he didn't chase him.
After returning to the recliner, he poured himself a glass of honey water and calmed down his mood briefly. Balian was ready to talk to Gamgee. After all, he knew the things in the Earl's Mansion best.
After asking Broda, the deputy captain of his guard, to call Bran back, Balian took Bran directly to a street not far from their residence, where Gamgee's mistress lived.
I bought this pretty nice house for my mistress.
The last time Gamghi came to Yangwei Shuo, he spent more than 500 dinars to spend a spring night with this woman. This time he spent more than 1,000 dinars to directly make this widowed woman his.
mistress.
Ganmuji drank a lot yesterday, and was sent back here by Broda and the others in the evening. He must still be staying at this woman's house now.
After the two of them knocked on the door and entered, Gamgee's guard did not go in to report, but looked embarrassed. He pouted in the direction of the bedroom. Balian approached the bedroom with a curious look on his face. He had just walked four or five
As I walked, I heard the strong roar of the man inside and the shy gasp of the woman.
I have never eaten pork and I have never seen a pig running. Balion understood immediately. He smiled and patted Bran who was following him. He said with a wicked smile: "Not suitable for children, please don't get so close, hehe.
, why are you listening with your ears open? Get out of the way."
Bran had a puzzled expression on his face and asked: "Master, what are you doing inside? What is that woman screaming for no reason in broad daylight?"
Balian touched his little head, smiled evilly, and said: "That woman is being beaten with a stick, can you stop screaming?"
"Being beaten with a stick? Master, what is that? Is she being beaten by Uncle Gamgee?" Bran asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Balian touched his chin and nodded, "It's considered a beating, but in this matter, the person who beats him and the person who was beaten are both happy, and both parties are happy."
"Ah! There is something like this. It's really incredible. It turns out that Uncle Gamji is so abnormal." Bran exclaimed.
Seeing how stupid he was, Balian originally stopped the topic, but since there was nothing to do at the moment, he just wanted to say a few more words to him, so he responded: "When you grow up a little bit, that is, in two or three years."
That’s about it, you’ll like this.”
Bran shook his head and said firmly: "Master, I will never like this kind of thing. Absolutely not. I can swear to the God of Fire."
Balian couldn't hold back and patted his little head again, laughing and scolding: "Wait two years before we talk about this matter. You know nothing now."
Not long after they muttered there, Gamgee came out. Balian looked at him with weak legs and feet, and thought to himself, Gamgee doesn't seem to be good either. It didn't take long for this to be over.
After a while, Ganmuji's mistress also came out. Her face was red and she looked at Ganji with a resentful look. She should be blaming Ganji for his incompetence in doing things.
After Gamgee saw Balian, he coughed twice in embarrassment, then glared at his woman and said loudly: "Ah, well, I want to go out with Sir Balian to discuss something. You, wait until I come back in the evening. It's okay.
Leave me alone."
As he spoke, Ganmuji lifted his legs and walked out. When he went down the last step, his legs were weak and he stepped on the ground and sat directly on the ground. The woman hurried over to pull him.
He threw her hand away with a red face and yelled angrily: "You troublesome woman, go back to the house quickly."
Balian and Bran almost laughed when they saw Gamgee's behavior, but considering that they still had to give Gamgee face in other people's homes, they turned away and suppressed their laughter.
When Gamji walked up to them, the woman also returned to the house and closed the door, they laughed wildly.
Ganmoji blushed and said to them: "My two good brothers, please stop making fun of me, okay?"
With that said, he pulled Balian to sit down in the pavilion in the courtyard, and then asked: "You must have something to do when you come to me today. Tell me quickly and I will listen."
So Balian told him about Jesses asking him to participate in the tourney. After hearing this, Gamgee's eyes lit up, and he stared at Balian as if he were staring at a money box full of gold coins.
Balian's head was numb from being stared at, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Hey, eh, have you seen enough? I'm asking you about the internal affairs of the Earl's Palace, not the handsome Balian."
Gamgee, Bran and the caravan guard were all amused by Balian's words. Gamgee smiled and said: "Brother Balian, if you can win this tourney, then I think you are very powerful."
Possibly the son-in-law of Earl Gerry.
This Miss Jesses is very interesting to you, and she even makes clothes for you. Tsk tsk tsk, it’s so enviable, why don’t I have such a good life? Am I not handsome?”
"Go away! Stop teasing me here and tell me what happened in the Earl's Mansion." Balian pretended to be angry and yelled at Gamgee.
Gamgee laughed even more wildly, but after laughing, he told Balian seriously: "Bailian, my good brother, to be honest, I don't recommend that you go to the tourney."
"Oh? Why is this?" Balian asked.
"Hi!" Gamgee sighed, and then said to Balian seriously: "If you are the son of a powerful earl or viscount, I will definitely support you to compete for Miss Jesses, my dear
Brothers Lyon.
Although I just made a joke like that, with your family background and strength, if Miss Jesses showed love to you, she would probably hurt you. Do you know how many sons of powerful families in Brick are staring at you?
Miss Jesses?"
Balian shook his head in disappointment. Although he never admitted it, he was indeed attracted to this noble girl.
"From the only son of our monarch, Charles, to the second son of Earl Rolf, as well as the children of the Earl of Loire, the military minister, and the eldest son of Earl Hao, the Grand Knight of the Palace Knights, there are many young people from Brick's top families.
People are staring at the unmarried Miss Jesses.
If they know that a little knight like you dares to compete with them for a beautiful girl and the earldom of Yang Weixuo Province, I don't need to tell you, you will know how these powerful guys will deal with you.
As long as they move their fingers a little, not only you, but also your Tucker family may be wiped out." Gamgee told Balian melancholy.
Seeing that Balian lowered his head and said nothing, he sighed and continued to reveal the major secrets he knew about Earl Gerry's mansion, "Do you know who Sister Murat is who disciplines Miss Jesses? This Murat is the wife of our monarch.
, Madam Alina's best friend, the purpose of sending Sister Murat here is to keep an eye on the prospective daughter-in-law she has chosen for her."
Speaking of this, Ganji poured a glass of water for Balian, "You should know that our monarch also wants to expand his ducal territory, and what else can Brick do now than swallow up the wealthy province of Yangweixuo?
, what about things that can further strengthen your territory?
The monarch and his wife have long been eyeing Miss Jesses. If we, a small noble, dare to fight with them, wouldn't we be asking for death? What do you think, my brother Balian?"
"Thank you for your advice, my good brother, but I still want to go to this tournament." Balian said firmly after listening to Gamgee's words.
"Ah! What I said is so clear, how can you... well, at this point, as for what to do, it's up to you.
You are a young but wise person that I have never met before. I believe that you should think about things more carefully than me." Ganji was a little helpless, he did not expect that Balian would be so stubborn.
Listen to your own advice.
Balian stood up, looked up into the distance, and said: "I promised her that I would definitely do this. Besides, she hasn't shown any love to me now, so don't think too much about it.
.
These big shots you just mentioned, if they are not stupid, they should have figured out how could Miss Jesse fall in love with me so easily?
Besides, for such a big matter as marriage, there is no decision for the Earl and Mrs. Gerry, and Miss Jesse can't make the decision on her own. Let's not think about it too much. I will win the tourney and save the girl named Puli, and then
Let’s go back. From now on, we will basically never come to Yangwei Shuocheng again.”
After listening to Balian's words, Gamgee stood beside him, put his hand on his shoulder and said: "Okay, if you think about it, just do it. I support you, just do it, good brother."
In the evening of the same day, Balian came to the Double Ring Armor Shop that he had visited before, found the boss Jed, and asked him to customize some weapons and equipment. The purpose of Balian's visit to Yang Weixuo this time was to watch the excitement of the Knights Tournament, and the armor only brought
He was wearing a cloth face armor, and he didn't bring any weapons other than a sword.
